Check Gauge Scare - Battery
So it's raining pretty good here, I happen to hit a major puddle on the side of the road.
I was at a traffic light, check gauge light dinged on. I look, and see my battery gauge is down to nothing, but all running fine. Light turned green, I hit the gas, and I here the belt squeal for a quick second, then stopped, then the battery gauge went back to normal.
Has this happened to anyone before?

Most likely the belt got wet and allowed it to slip on the alt. by stepping on it you allowed it to slip just enough to dry up the water and turn the pulley again..
as yes i had this happen to me once..... except in my case it was because the power steering pump pulley spun off and went through the radiator and the belt really was off the pulley
Lucky for me it happend on a cold snowy night while i was driving on the interstate about 4 miles to the closest exit @2am
